Good Witch was cancelled by Hallmark recently, and the stars of the series – Catherine Bell, Kat Barrell, and James Denton – have reacted to the news that there won’t be an eighth season. Bell appeared in the Good Witch series and films for 13 years, but that is all coming to an end soon. The series finale for the drama will air on July 25th at 9 PM, and it is titled “The Wedding.”
Per Deadline, the Hallmark Channel episode sees the Merriwick cousins getting ready to face the mysterious force putting their family legacy at risk while changes are in store for others.

Denton said the following in a statement:
“It would be unseemly to complain about your show being cancelled after seven seasons, and I won’t. I’ve been very fortunate to have been on other long-running series, but Good Witch was special. The fans were so devoted to the show and I’m disappointed for them, but I hope they know how much the actors appreciated their vocal support. The cast was the nicest collection of wildly talented people I’ve ever been around. The producers treated us extremely well, and I’m happy to still have two movies to make with the network so I’m not saying goodbye to the Hallmark audience yet.”
What do you think? Were you surprised that the Good Witch TV show was cancelled by Hallmark? Do you plan to watch the finale later this month? Would you have watched season eight?
I have always looked forward to my alone time every Sunday night with all of the beautiful and amazing cast . I will miss the show so much. Hopefully one last movie will be in the near future
So disappointed it was a nice family show
Why?
I am going to miss all the characters, I hope they come back or keep making the movie version
Bring it back …plz
I’m very disappointed that Good Witch is coming to an end, it has been brilliant, I hope another channel will pick it up and carry it on.
I am sorry that you the network had to cancel yet another one of my my favorite shows yet again.i like hallmark an had really loved most of what was on the network.if this cancel crazy pattern keeps up then I won’t be watching any tv.hallmark I watch almost all the time.there won’t. Be anything that i like left for me to watch.am yes I would have watched it another season.
Hallmark used to be my go to channel. I always looked forward to Good Witch. Now all that is left is hours of stale reruns that you can see on many other networks. Good bye Hallmark.
I loved every season and every episode. I always record it in case I miss it for any reason. Where I used to record many shows, it has reached the point where Witch and Hallmark Mysteries are all I consider worth not missing. So very sorry to see it go, as it will be greatly missed. I have rewatched every movie several times and all episodes at least once. Thank you so much to all involved for the many hours of enjoyment you have provided.
It’s done. Deal with it.
That was a mean thing to sayWe as a nation had to deal with more than our share in the past year
I’m sad that it got canceled I would watch season eight and go see where could go from here let it redeem itself who’s with me
Absolutely devastated Hallmark cancelled Good Witch. The show should have been given another chance and deserved more respect especially for the the amazing actors on the show. I would watch it on any channel, please, bring it back!
You knew it was in trouble when they brought other witches into the mix. And Bell’s bizarre plastic surgery/injected face is just strange and hard to look at.
Bah humbug. Hallmark is not the channel it was. Stupid sitcom reruns. Bye bye Hallmark.
Unfortunately they didn’t cancel the right show. They should have cancelled When Calls the Heart instead. Whereas WCTH had really gone downhill over the last 2 seasons to the point where I won’t watch any future seasons, I still enjoy and look forward to Good Witch every week and feel it’s just keeps getting better every week. Unfortunately Hallmark, at least on the main Network, isn’t the same network it once was. I still enjoy the Mystery movies on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries like the Martha’s Vineyard mysteries, but the movies on the original Hallmark channel movies are essentially the… Read more »
I can’t get into When calls the heart. They are all off the cover of Vogue magazine of 18 whatever. Never saw so much glamour. If you’re going g to make a period piece make it believable.
I agree. They cancelled the wrong series. The Good Witch had good story and great make believe whereas WCTH was a let down Season 8. That is the Series that needs to be cancelled.
What were they thinking? To cancel the ONE show that actually has the ability, for an hour, to take you away from all the stress and strife that is happening in today’s world! Just the theme song is a carpet ride to another world where all that can be forgotten for just a little while. There is nothing else like it! To everyone who made that show possible, thank you! It will be dearly missed! For those responsible for ending it there are no words for extinguishing a light in such dark days.
Well said Diane. Our days are ONLY getting darker and that one hour a week took you to somewhere relaxing, entertaining and loving. The love the characters showed each other made you feel as if you were part of the family. I only had Hallmark channel after my husband passed and I watched every single movie that came on, even if I had seen it 25 times because there isn’t anything else on is decent. Finally got Hallmark Movies & Mysteries and I have basically seen all the movies on this channel. This series is one thing that kept me… Read more »
SO VERY SAD to see a GREAT family show that always was a joy to watch and inspire people to be kinder. We live in a disruptive life right now between conflits/wars, government politicians who ONLY care about their careers vs the people they are supposed to represent and still fighting a killing virus. It was so WONDERFUL to escape all that for an hour of Good Witch each week with family. Thank you for the fantastic actresses, actors, crew, writers and all others not mentioned in the credits for a FANTASTIC job thru the years. You ALL will be… Read more »
